cnrdrvcups-sfp
The package downloads Canon's official UFRII LT printer driver source from Canon's own gdlp01.c-wss.com domain, which is plausibly Canon's official distribution infrastructure; the download host is not on the standard whitelist but is legitimate for the vendor, and the source is built locally, which is normal AUR packaging behavior for proprietary drivers.
Triggered rules
llm_review
The static rules flagged this MEDIUM, but an AI model (qwen/qwen3-235b-a22b-07-25) reviewed the full PKGBUILD and judged it LOW (confidence 95%): The package downloads Canon's official UFRII LT printer driver source from Canon's own gdlp01.c-wss.com domain, which is plausibly Canon's official distribution infrastructure; the download host is not on the standard whitelist but is legitimate for the vendor, and the source is built locally, which is normal AUR packaging behavior for proprietary drivers.
